Re: [HCDX] Log of Congo-5995

[Glenn Hauser <wghauser@xxxxxxxxx>]

Bogdan,

Sorry, 5995 is Mali, not Congo Brazzaville, which is listed on 5985 (blocked by
WYFR) but which I doubt is active. This is a good reference for parts of
Africa: http://www.muenster.org/uwz/ms-alt/africalist/africalist.pdf

73, Glenn Hauser
